1.1. Getting Started

Welcome! We are happy that you want to give SimBricks a try.

The easiest way to get started with just running a simulation is to use our Docker images, see our README for details.

Where you go from here depends on what you plan to do with SimBricks. Our How To section provides instructions for some common scenarios. In general, we suggest starting with reading up on our orchestration framework, see SimBricks Orchestration, and experimenting with building different simulation configurations, e.g. Create and Run an Experiment and Add a Node or Application Config. This will enable you to assemble and customize various configurations of SimBricks simulations.

If you are planning on making changes to the implementation of SimBricks components, you may next want to make sure you can build SimBricks from source. For instructions, refer to our Quick Start section in the README. We recommend diving into our Developer Guide for learning about the SimBricks architecture, internals, and APIs.

If you run into problems please refer to Getting Help.
